Re: Antivirus 2008

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

You don't seem to understand that I know what I am doing, having started in IT in the mid 1970's. Admittedly there is still a learning curve as OS's, etc, evolve, hence my questions to these ng's.

And I don't appreciate the patronizing attitude of some posters.

The pc in question is now clean.

You still don't seem to understand what everyone has been trying to tell you. Once a system has been infected there is no way of knowing if it has been cleaned/repaired except doing a full format and rebuild. You have been able to fix the symptoms that you noticed. There may still be other left over problems or the computer may still be infected.

For information and enlightenment:

I fixed the problem, it turned out to be a winsock corruption.

reinstalling tcp was the answer.

One XPPro workstn was infected by the antivirus 2008 trojan, which I have managed to clean.
One problem remains: I cannot browse any server (2003) shares via network places or explorer, although all mapped drives are accessible.
When I try to browse to the server, - '\\our_srv\' only one share is shown - 'userdata' - and this appears as an empty folder.

I know that the trojan affects the local policies, which I've reset, but cannot find anything that would cause the above.

Any help, suggestions, guidance would be gratefully received.

P.S. I'm not sure if this is the correct ng. Hope it is.
